State Representative Nancy Michael and State Senator Connie Lawson were on hand to discuss the 2009 Legislative Session. For a crowd of nearly 30 patrons consisting of County Superintendents, Mayor Murray, Commissioner Baird, County Councilman Deck, and others our legislators discussed bills they have introduced and others they will be watching closely. Rep. Michael noted that she will be attempting to read 100 bills a day from the list of over 700 bills that have been introduced. Agriculture issues, one concerning the assessment of farm land along with several Education issues provided the majority of discussion. Another bill of interest was one that could bring funds to the county for roads and bridge repair. Our next Update Session will be held Feb. 21st at 8 a.m. in the
Farm Bureau boardroom.
